Overview
Kopul’s 12-Channel XLR to RJ45 Network Cable Extender is a simple and economical solution to replace heavy, bulky, and costly audio and DMX snakes with thin, lightweight CAT or etherCON cables. Link sound boards, PA systems, multitrack recorders, and SMX-equipped lights with clean and interference-free signals over lengthy cable runs. Each ethernet cable provides four channels of balanced mic level, AES/EBU, and DMX signals and extend the length of your cable runs without interference, signal loss, or added coloration. This passive network extender requires no external power to operate, and there’s no digital audio conversion. Gold-plated XLR connecters assure superb signal transfer and resist corrosion, and durable steel construction stands up to demanding travel and studio environments. Send all 12 channels to a single location, or use Kopul’s 4-channel XLR extenders to create a customized audio snake to connect multiple destinations at once. The extenders can also take advantage of buildings with Cat 5, 5e, 6, or 7 wiring to connect several rooms at once. Ethernet cables allow for extraordinarily long cable runs. A well-shielded high-quality Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable can transmit line level analog signals up to 3000 feet with only minimal signal degradation.
Features
Extends an Audio or DMX Network
If you’ve been running bulky and costly XLR snakes to control audio or lights from the back of the house, Kopul’s 12-channel female XLR to RJ45 Network Cable Extender is the solution you’ve been looking for. Send and receive twelve channels of analog audio, digital audio, or DMX signals to recorders, mixing boards, PA systems, and DMX controllers over a single RJ45 cable, even if they’re thousands of feet away.
Rack Mountable
The 12-channel female XLR to RJ45 Network Cable Extender will fit into a standard 19-inch equipment rack for studio, travel, and live event convenience. Reversible rack ears let you decide whether the XLR or RJ45 connectors face the front of your rack.
Passive Design
The RM-12XFRJ45 doesn’t require a power source. Just attach it inline with your microphones or DMX-equipped lights and it will transmit a clean signal without interference or coloration.
Phantom Power Support
The Network Cable Extender supports 48 V phantom power for studio applications. You can operate your studio condenser microphones with phantom power from your mixing board and transmit the mic signal between rooms or studios over RJ45 cables.
XLR Connectors
Gold-plated XLR connectors offer superb signal transfer and corrosion resistance—a plus if you’re transporting the extender to live shows and concerts.
CAT or etherCON Cable Connections
Ethernet cables allow for extraordinarily long cable runs. A well-shielded high-quality Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 7 cable can transmit line level analog signals up to 3000 feet with only minimal signal degradation. etherCon cables are preferred by pros in demanding live event applications due to their locking metal shell.
RJ45 Input Connectors
Each extender has input and THRU RJ45 connectors for each bank of four XLRs. This makes it possible to link each bank of XLR male connectors to a corresponding bank of XLR female connectors. The THRU RJ45 port allows you to add additional XLR ports to your setup with one of Kopul’s line of 12-channel, 4×4 channel, and 4-channel XLR network extenders.
RJ45 THRU Connectors
The THRU port allows you to daisy chain your XLR network extenders so you can add additional microphones, instruments, and effects to your setup, even if they are placed far apart.
4-Channel XLR Extender Compatible
This 12-channel network extender is compatible with Kopul’s XLR4M-RJ45 and XLR4F-RJ45 4-channel network extenders. Add them to your setup and create a complex snake with several different regions for live and studio applications.
